Hunt down these books

Bluff your way into the Occult (from the Bluffers Guide series)
The Big Book of Conspiracies

I think Bluff your Way into the Occult is out of print, but you can still find it on the internet...It mercilessly mocks various fake religious and big scams that have been carried out from time to time. Also, in a humourous
style, it shows how you can bluff your way as a someone with
"occult powers" by showing the correct respect for your wand, how
to refer to books that no-one bothers reading and the principles
of making up all kinds of divination...

The Big Book of Conspiracies is just plain required reading...

It's a secret ... of course. (-:

If we told you that we'd have to kill you and trap your soul in a Hermetically sealed jar.

I have my own Secret, how ever, its so secret, I forgot what it was myself. So it really is a secret now, (even from me) so there must be some pretty powerful stuff stuffed away, sitting there generating more power or sending its all knowing vibes out to me, and some how with it, I am affecting everything around me. Just like a conduit.

Its no surprise that even mundane philintrophic organizations have their own secret handshakes and penalties when they meet, to add the allure to people who think, wow, I want to join them, they have secret handshake, oooh thats cool.

What would be the attraction to joining a boring quilting circle if everyone had a secret on what it was they were actuallly sewing, and only one of the people knew what it was, then once the quilt came together , the secret would be revealed...ah the toture...but tell your friends about your torture and how the secret of the quilting circle is suppose to keeping you at bey and questiong for an answer, it would make the most mundane thing, like a quilting circle seem like the most exotic thing you could take part in....No Mystery? No interest!

Use your imagination, yr best tool. I have always wanted to do that

Sssssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhh
